The application I first started working on after switching jobs to Mobiata has been released! FlightTrack for Android is now available on any Android-powered device. Yay.
I'm pretty shocked at the development pace for mobile devices. It is light speed in comparison to my Oracle work. In the 2+ years I worked at Oracle, we didn't have a single major release due to constant delays (the running joke being "we're releasing 6-9 months the current date"). In comparison, I've been working at Mobiata for five weeks and we've already released two apps (mine, as well as TripDeck for iPhone).
I'm enjoying working at home. It affords many great benefits: I can listen to music on speakers, I can easily do those errands that can only be done during work hours, I can get packages delivered to my apartment. And yes, I work in my underwear sometimes. By far the strangest benefit is weight loss; I've lost about one pound each week I've worked at Mobiata. That may not seem like much, but I've been trying for years to drop a few pounds (back to my college-era weight), and in the span of five weeks I'm most of the way there. I'm going to need to buy a new belt because my current one looks like a wreck, it's been worn on so many notches that it is all wrinkly.
I am still at a loss to explain the weight change exactly, because I'm not eating any healthier (nor exercising any more than before). I think it has to do with a different eating schedule. When I worked at Oracle, I would wake up and eat breakfast around 8:30, and my coworkers and I would get lunch at 11:00. That meant I'd overeat for a bit in the morning, and then I'd be starving by the time I got home around 18:00, so I'd have eat extra then, too. Now I just eat little meals and snacks when I feel peckish.
Anyways, things are going pretty well at camp Daniel.
